the game of football
Football is a bag of wind - forced from post to post
Football is a game of chance. Eleven fight the odds,
No one knows why,
It's men on the run,
Bare hairy legs - sweat on the brow,
Ice on the ground, and large noisy crowds

In 22yds and an hour and a half,
There's shouting - jeering - loo rolls flying and
an aftermath of violent abuse mixed with
the encoraging fanatical fans-
Willing,
Praying,
giving their all for an odds on result. -

Football is a business - but fans say a game
Games are for pleasure - or -
have they got it wrong -
vandalise
Maim
Kill
Destroy - thats the pleasure for some,

But in the main
the game remains the same
JUST FOOTBALL
